About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom villa with private pool in Estepona, Costa del Sol. This south-facing new-build property sits on an 800-square-metre corner plot in the Valle Romano area, with 427 square metres of built space designed for completion in 2027. The villa comes with a fully licensed construction project incorporating smart home automation systems throughout.
Inside, the layout spreads across three double bedrooms and five bathrooms, with a 70-square-metre terrace extending the living space outdoors. The property includes one covered parking space and benefits from its corner position, which maximises natural light across all south-facing rooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the main living areas open directly onto the private pool terrace, whilst the upper floor bedrooms each feature en-suite facilities. The kitchen specification allows for customisation during the build phase, and the plot size permits additional outdoor features beyond the pool area.
Valle Romano Golf & Resort provides the immediate setting, with the villa positioned within walking distance of the clubhouse and its facilities. Estepona's old town centre lies 4 kilometres to the west, reachable in under 10 minutes by car, whilst the nearest beaches at Playa del Saladillo are 3.5 kilometres away. The property sits 15 minutes from Puerto Banús and 20 minutes from Marbella town centre along the A-7 coastal road.

Buying this villa in Estepona
Can foreigners buy property in Estepona?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Estepona. You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) before signing the title deed, plus a Spanish bank account for the transfer. The full purchase typically completes 6 to 10 weeks from signing the reservation contract.
What is an NIE and how do I get one?
The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax ID and is mandatory for buying property, opening a bank account or paying taxes. You can apply at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Your lawyer can also obtain it on your behalf with a power of attorney, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a Spanish lawyer?
Strongly recommended. An independent lawyer (abogado), separate from the agent and seller, verifies title, checks for debts and planning issues, drafts contracts and represents you at the notary. Typical fee is 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, with a minimum around €1,500.
How long does completion take?
From accepted offer to keys: 6 to 10 weeks for a resale, 30 to 45 days from reservation if no mortgage is needed. New-build off-plan completes when the development is delivered, often 18 to 36 months after reservation, with staged payments along the way.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Estepona?
Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.
